Syncing music from iPhone to Apple Watch happens over Wi-Fi when your Apple Watch is charging, and your selected playlist will need to download to your iPhone (which happens automatically after being selected) before it can sync the downloaded music to Apple Watch. Just keep in mind that music won’t sync from iPhone to Apple Watch instantly.

You can update your playlist from your iPhone at any time to change your selection too.
Once your playlist is set, head back to the Watch app on iPhone and find Music → Synced Music to select your new playlist. You can also add music to your playlist after you create it from your library when browsing songs, albums, and artists. You can even pull from multiple existing playlists (just keep the song count or storage amount in mind). You can create a new playlist from the Music app on iPhone by going to Library → Playlist → New Playlist … where you can give your playlist a name like ‘Apple Watch’ (or WATCH) in my case) followed by an optional description, artwork, and public or private status.įrom here you can tap Add Music to pick songs and albums to add to your playlist. This is a workaround for the limitation of only being able to sync a single playlist and not multiple albums or playlists. My preference is to create a playlist called Apple Watch and add music to it specifically for syncing to Apple Watch.
Otherwise you can go to the Watch app on iPhone and find Music → Synced Music to select a playlist. You can only sync one playlist at a time, however, so you may want to create a new playlist of music that you want to sync ahead of time. The Watch app on iPhone is also where you will set which music to sync. Apple Watch has a limit of 250 songs or 2 GB which you can change in the Watch app on iPhone under Music → Storage Limit.
This includes songs added from Apple Music, purchased from iTunes, and even music you’ve added from other sources … as long as it’s in the iPhone Music app. Music from third-party services like Spotify and Tidal won’t sync to Apple Watch yet.Īpple Watch can’t stream music over the Internet like iPhones so the music needs to be downloaded and synced like back in the iPod days. It’s fairly simple if you follow the right steps, however, there are a few tricks to make syncing music to Apple Watch easier.įor starters, your music needs to be in Apple’s Music app on your iPhone before it can sync to Apple Watch. Any Apple Watch can play music without iPhone which is especially useful for outdoor workouts, but you have to decide what music and how you’ll listen ahead of time.
